Chapter 9 The First Arrival in Youzhou

Early the next morning, they set off again, but along the way, Rong Jiu couldn't say a few words to Mo Ningshu, and every time she couldn't help but go to find Mo Ningshu, she would be dragged away by her brothers for various reasons.

Although she hated it so much, every time she saw them pretending to be pitiful with a harmless face, she hated herself for being useless! Who made her have always had no resistance to good-looking people!

So, Rong Jiu's first love was just beginning, and he was ruthlessly cut off by his brothers, although he was unwilling, but when he thought that he was going to kiss, Rong Jiu could only silently choose to give up.

If you want to blame them, you can only blame them for not having a chance, although their hearts are a little empty, but so what? Originally, there should be people who have no intersection, not to mention the different identities, Rong Jiu still has the heavy responsibility of being close, and the two of them will not have results no matter what.

Maybe one day in the future, Rong Jiu will also thank his brothers for obstruction.

Although Mo Ningshu was a little uncomfortable with Rong Jiu's estrangement, he sometimes even secretly watched Rong Jiu lose his mind, but at this time, he didn't know what it meant to like.

After more than a month of travel, Rong Jiu and his party finally came to Jing'an City, the capital of Youzhou.

As soon as he stepped into the city gate, Rong Jiu was amazed by the noisy streets, Youzhou deserved to be a big country, far more lively than Xining.

The bustling streets were lined with all sorts of things, most of which she had never seen before, and the busy pedestrians didn't stop to watch because of their luxurious convoys, and if it weren't for her brothers guarding outside the car, she probably wouldn't be able to help sneaking out to play.

The monarch of Youzhou thought about it quite thoughtfully, and specially built a mansion for them in accordance with the architectural style of Xining, and after a simple rest, he became ready to enter the palace to meet them.

The palace in Youzhou is several times larger than Xining, and it is also much more spectacular, along the way, Rong Jiu sat in the sedan chair and couldn't help but open the curtain to look out, but every time he was stunned by Rong Le and retracted his head.

If you don't look at it, you don't look at it, and you stare at it.

Of course, Rong Jiu only dared to say these words in his heart.

In the comfortable and stable sedan chair, Rong Jiu was lying on the soft collapse with one hand supporting her head, her mood at the moment was also walking towards the palace step by step with the sedan chair, and she was so nervous that she was pounding, and the other little hand was constantly playing with a strand of hair on her chest, and her mood had already flown out.

I don't know what kind of person the third prince will be? Amu said that he was as cold as ice, he was the most beautiful man in Youzhou Country, and he never approached women, he wouldn't dislike women, right? No, no, no, it can't be, that's because he didn't meet me. Will he be as stupid as Mo Ningshu's big wood? Thinking of this, Rong Jiu shook his head like a rattle, trying to shake the thoughts out of his head.

Damn, how did she think of Moninshu again!

The sedan chair was lifted very steadily, without a trace of bumps, and it took half an hour from the palace gate to the Taihe Palace, and the time converted into the current one was an hour, perhaps it was too bumpy, and finally settled down, and Rong Jiu fell asleep all of a sudden.

In the hall paved with fine white jade, Song Mian, the monarch of Youzhou, was standing with his deputy, and there were three or five minions kneeling tremblingly underground, their foreheads were tightly pressed against the ground, and they didn't dare to come out.

"Where the hell did the third prince go!"

"Your Majesty is angry, the minions went to the Third Prince's Mansion early in the morning, but the people said that the Third Prince did not return last night, and they didn't know where to go."

The leader of the minion said, because he was so scared, that even his voice trembled a little.

"Bastard!" Song Mian shook his hand and scolded angrily.

The princess of Xining and his relatives will arrive soon, and the third prince can't find anyone at this time, so how can he explain to the Xining envoys! Harmony is a major matter related to the two countries, so don't slack off.

"Your Majesty is angry, the third prince has not returned overnight, and it is not good to spread it, and it is too late to find it now, Your Majesty might as well declare to the outside world that the third prince occasionally feels cold, and it is inconvenient to meet guests, so first announce that the eldest prince came to greet the ninth princess."

It was Song Mian's personal eunuch Ji Gonggong who spoke, Ji Gonggong was over seventy years old, but he also assisted two kings, and he was quite clever in speaking and doing things, and Song Mian also had some respect for him.

"Just do what Father-in-law Ji said, if you mess up me again this time, you will come and see you!"

Song Mian naturally knew his son, why did he suddenly disappear, but he was not satisfied with the marriage he set for him, so he did it on purpose, and he was to blame him for spoiling him too much. He came from afar with the princess, but the prospective husband was nowhere to be seen, what kind of system did this be, and now he could only let his eldest son come to receive him.

When Rong Jiu woke up again, he was woken up by Ah Mu.

Rong Jiu rubbed his sleepy eyes, cheered up and tidied up his dress, and then got off the sedan chair with Amu's support.

"I'll go in for a while, don't talk nonsense, if the king asks you anything, you will answer anything, you know?"

Rong Le carefully pinned the messy broken hair in front of Rong Jiu's forehead behind his ears, and said a few words uneasily.

"Alright, alright, I got it." Rong Jiu stuck out her tongue silently, how could her eldest brother die of long-winded words like her mother.

"Well," Rong Le nodded with satisfaction, and then looked at Rong Xian again, although Rong Jiu was a little naughty, he was still more obedient, but this is the case, he usually speaks lightly and heavily, "And you, don't talk nonsense for a while." ”

"Good. Got it! Rong Xian touched the tip of his nose and replied, he still knows the rules.

Although he is usually used to being casual, he still knows whether he is in a foreign country, and he still knows the severity of his words and deeds, and he will never lose their face in Xining.

"Wait here for a while, and wait for the ministers to report first." Mo Ningshu stepped forward and said, and when he left, he didn't forget to look at Rong Jiu, looking like he wanted to say something.

Rong Jiu could only pretend to look away as if nothing had happened, although she was still a little happy in her heart when Mo Ningshu looked at it.

In the solemn hall, the civil and military ministers stood neatly on both sides, and on the throne engraved with a golden dragon, Song Mian, the monarch of Youzhou, sat in a bright yellow dragon robe.

Song Mian is over fifty years old, but the years have not left traces on his face, his deep eyes are affectionate but indifferent, and the whole person exudes an irresistible kingly atmosphere.

"Your Majesty!"

The originally quiet court became noisy at the moment because of Mo Ningshu's arrival, after all, Mo Ningshu's arrival meant that the princess who came to Xining to make peace with her had also arrived.

Youzhou Country is a powerful country on the surface, but in fact, in addition to the full treasury, the force is extremely weak, not to mention that there is a Mingyue Country behind it, and now it can only rely on marriage with Xining to contain Mingyue Kingdom.

"General Mo, please hurry up, it's been hard all the way!" Song Mian's cold face suddenly became warmer, and he couldn't help but stretch out his hand to help him.

"Your Majesty's words are serious, the minister has fulfilled his mission, and today he finally ushered in the nine princesses of Xining safely, and at this time, the prince and princess of Xining and others are already waiting outside the palace." Mo Ningshu said neither humbly nor arrogantly.

"Good! Good! General Mo will definitely be rewarded for his merits on a certain day! Tired from the journey, General Mo went down to rest first, come on, quickly invite the prince and princess of Xining into the palace! ”

Mo Ningshu is the general of Youzhou, whether it is leading the troops or being a person, Song Mian is full of praise for him, coupled with the fact that this mission will bring the princess of Xining and his relatives safely, Song Mian can't help but pay more attention to him.

If the imperial palace in Xining amazed Rong Jiu, then the imperial palace in Youzhou was enough to shock Rong Jiu, this is simply a refined version of the Forbidden City!

Although Rong Jiu had tried his best to restrain the exclamation that was about to come out of his mouth, his eyes still couldn't control his eyes glancing around.

"The envoys of Xining Kingdom see Your Majesty!"

Although Xining is brave and good at fighting, and its strength is on par with Youzhou State, it has been subservient to Youzhou Country for generations, just to contain Mingyue Country with Youzhou Country and avoid unnecessary war.

"Hurry up, everyone has come from afar, if there is anything I don't entertain, just say it, don't be polite." Song Mian said with a smile.

"Your Majesty's words are serious, and I would like to thank Your Majesty for the mansion." Rong Le said with a smile, his gentle face was more sincere than steady.

"This is what I should do, after all, the fifth princess has not yet reached the end of time, and I have also promised the king of Xining to let him get acquainted with it in Youzhou for half a year before marrying him."

It stands to reason that you should wait for Rong Jiu and Lu to welcome Youzhou, but recently, the wolf ambitions of Mingyue Country have become more and more obvious, Song Mian thought twice, and could only pick up Rong Jiu in advance, so that no matter whether Rong Jiu and the third prince marry or not, they can let Mingyue Kingdom know that Youzhou and Xining are on the same line.

"Your Majesty has a heart."

"You and I have always been good friends, so you don't have to be so polite. In the next six months, you can treat Jing'an as if you were in Xining, and you don't have to be too restricted. Song Mian stroked his slender beard, and the smile on his face was clearly visible.

The two of them just said a word, chatting so happily, but Rong Jiu stood aside, very bored, just when she was about to find an excuse to slip away, Song Mian watched her speak.

"Although the fifth princess has not yet reached the end of the world, I am afraid that I can't find the second one in this peerless appearance."

Rong Jiu is still willing to listen to Song Mian's sycophants, after all, a woman, who doesn't want others to praise her for being good-looking!

"Your Majesty said this, I'm afraid I won't dare to see people in the future, the secluded continent is vast, what kind of beauty is not, to be honest, I'm a little ashamed." Rong Jiu said with a smile.

"Hahaha, the fifth princess has a clever mouth, I really like it."

Rong Jiu has always disliked communicating with people, especially unfamiliar people, because she really doesn't know what to talk about, such as Song Mian's words, she really doesn't know how to continue, so she can only giggle vigorously.

"Speaking of which, why haven't you seen the third prince?" Rong Le seemed to know Rong Jiu's embarrassment, and hurriedly changed the topic.

"That's right, Ci'er occasionally felt a cold in the past two days, so I let him rest in the mansion, and when he recovers, I will let him go to make amends to you." Song Mian, who has always been majestic, told lies, but he was very skillful, so that people couldn't see the fake.

It's just that he can hide it from others, but he can't hide it, how to say that he is also his sister's future husband, Rong Le has already sent someone to investigate, the third prince is not sick at all, but he is not happy with this marriage, so he deliberately did not come.

"Oh? That's a pity. Rong Le sighed, since Song Mian said so, it is not easy for him to debunk it in person, anyway, there is still half a year to go, and his sister does not have to marry these three princes. In Rong Le's opinion, these three princes are simply blind, and they are not worthy of their sisters at all.

"The fifth princess has just arrived, and there are a lot of fun things to do in Youzhou, so I'll let Ting'er take you outside to play first, okay?" Song Mian asked with a smile.

"Yes, yes!" Rong Jiu didn't care about it so much, as soon as she heard that she could go out to play, her heart blossomed, she really didn't like these complicated entertainments.

"Hahaha, okay, Gonggong Ji, take the ninth princess over." Song Mian beckoned, and Gonggong Ji stepped forward with a look, "Ninth princess, please move with the old slave." ”
